Daisy nods. "But most people sleep at night, and have trouble sleeping at other times; it won't be a surprise if you end up wanting to do that, now that there is a night. It's okay if you do; it'd be a little inconvenient right now, but we'd figure something out."

She shrugs again as she sits down and starts eating. "I think. I was just, comfortable? And tired? It...felt like a long walk. It...hasn't been a problem before?"

Permalink

"Okay. Just, whatever you want to do is fine - we're going to be putting something together so we won't disturb you if you want to sleep while Pradnakt or I are working in here."

Permalink

"It's...not a problem-" Rhoda stops herself from finishing that sentence with 'if you disturb me', reframes it. "I think I'll be okay once I get used to sleeping on a...normal schedule. But. I don't want to..." No, Daisy will probably disagree with 'get in the way', 'be an inconvenience' will probably get the same response. She has no idea how to finish that sentence now. "I don't want to put you to any trouble?" she says, clearly not happy with the wording.

Permalink

"It isn't any trouble. It is some effort, but it's worth some effort to make us all comfortable."

Permalink

She's silent for a moment as she eats some more. "I'll- You'll let me help? If I can?"

Permalink

"Sure. We're still planning it, I'll show you the blueprints once I'm done here and you can see if there's anything you'd like to change."

Permalink

Blueprints sound...big. But she nods. "Thank you," she says with a small smile. (And every time she smiles, it's getting more and more natural.)

Permalink

"You're welcome," Daisy grins.

She pokes at the skillet a bit - it now contains onions and tomatoes in addition to the steak and potatoes. "I'm surprised Pradnakt isn't down yet, can you tell if she's awake?"

Permalink

Rhoda isn't entirely- Oh. "No," she shakes her head. "It's...not clear?" Pause. "Sorry?"

Permalink

"It's all right. I'll go get her."

Permalink

Rhoda thinks for a second. "I- I could go? Unless it's better if you go?"

Permalink

"This'll be fine without me for a minute, and you're still eating. It's no trouble."

Permalink

She nods and goes back to her food. (It still feels a little strange to be actually full when she finishes eating, in a good way.)

Permalink

Daisy goes out and returns after a minute with Pradnakt, carrying a hastily-bundled blanket and looking amused. Good morning.

Permalink

Good morning, Rhoda greets with a slight nod. You...slept well?

Permalink

She grins a little wider; apparently that's funny, for some reason. Yeah.

Permalink

Rhoda tentatively smiles back - even if she's very confused as to what exactly is so funny. Thank you for letting me use your bed.

Permalink

No problem. I'm glad you liked it.

Permalink

She looks down at her plate and the little that remains, tries to decide whether she's still hungry. You're very cheerful this morning? she sends in the mean time, curious as to the why on that - but definitely not pushing for an answer.

Permalink

Yeah. It's nothing to worry about. Daisy sets a plate in front of her, and she tucks in. Anything you want to do today?

Permalink

She shrugs slightly. I- need to look after the quail, she asserts after a moment. But otherwise...I'm still a little tired after the walking yesterday?

Permalink

Nod. You can spend the day in bed, if you want. I'm going to be making jerky, it gets boring pretty quick - I bet Daisy will read to you, if you want.

Permalink

She looks down at her plate, before standing up and going to take care of the remains and clean the plate. That seems...lazy? she sends after a moment.

Permalink

 

I suppose. You're still allowed to do it.
